Now that Hillary Clinton has officially announced her run for president, experts and pundits will be studying more closely why Americans will or will not vote for her.
Based on her campaign launch, Clinton isn't interested in touting her time as Secretary of State to get herself in the White House. Instead, her campaign will be all about "breaking glass ceilings" and asking for votes in order to make history as the first female president. The goal is to accuse all critics of her policies and 35 year long record in Washington of sexism and misogyny. As Cortney reported earlier, militant feminists are already out in full force, accusing those who call her Hillary Clinton, instead of Hillary Rodham, of feeding America's patriarchal society.
But if Hillary Rodham Clinton wants to win the White House, she's going to have to find a better campaign platform than, "I'm a woman, vote for me." A new Bloomberg poll released over the weekend shows Clinton's female candidacy has little bearing on garnering votes from Americans.
Over to you, Carly Fiorina:
"I'm not running because I'm a woman. The facts are I am a woman. I've never been a token in my life."
Katie P rocks!
If Obama was not part negro we would have never have heard about him.
It doesn’t matter much to Bill either.
Being female used to be worth +5% IMHO. That’s probably declined somewhat since the movie “9 to 5” came out.
Let’s all jump on the bandwagon and show everybody how unprejudiced we are!
A movement of +8% based on her being a woman alone might be decisive.
I am assuming this is because she isn’t much of a woman?
Really, such polls are worthless. The PC factor makes the whole exercise meaningless. You’re not supposed to care, that’s the right answer, so that’s what you say.
This poll is BS...just like the ‘magic negro’; she will get votes just because she is (allegedly) a woman. The corruption? The theft? The blood? What difference does it make?
Tthey must be talking about those introverted redneck racists in Utah, who voted for... Mia Love, a black woman? Or the New England elitists who voted for Susan Collins and Kelly Ayotte? Those midwesterners who elected Joni Ernst and Deb Fisher. Alaska may have a small population but they sent Lisa Murkowski to the Senate. Must be the deliverance of West Virginia’s Shelly Moore Capito. Those Republicans sure hate women. /s
Pear Shaped Woman
Correct, being a woman mattereth not.
But, being a lying, low IQ b*tch does.
The gynecrats and homos will still vote for her.
Hillary is a female?
Much like Shelob.
In a Latrodectus kind of way.
After seeing them twice elect a homosexual Kenyan Muslim to the Presidency of the United States, I wouldn’t put anything past the American voter, not even Hillary Clinton.
There are many fools in America who will vote for this dried-up old criminal. Don’t kid your self.
If I were to ever vote for a someone simply because they were a woman, it would be in a wet T-shirt contest.
